While we often focus on the hard numbers & data when analyzing the economy & financial markets, we have to remember that these systems are ultimately driven by humans.

Which means price behavior is a function of behavioral factors like sentiment and confidence.

Peter is a top expert in how changes in confidence consistently and predictably impact investor preferences, decisions and actions.
